I have a thing for marcel dzama


I'm kind of sick right now, a sure sign winter's frigid winds are not far behind, so I did a drawing. It's an ode to my favorite man Marcel Dzama, he's so cool! He's at the Tate Modern right now so I am so there. Totally.

PS I am the big head in the chair.

I need to do everything more, run more, laugh more, draw more, take more pictures, I want to do everything all the time but I end up not doing anything instead! My mom used to say, "There just aren't enough hours in the day," but I want to scream To hell with that!

I want to make Chinese lanterns, knit a hat for winter and write up a storyboard in the next few weeks! Anyone in?

I've had too many Cheetohs/ Furniture Series No. 1-4/100

To improve my drawing I'm starting a couple of series of things that I don't like to draw, usually because I can't draw them very well. So I'm starting with furniture mostly because symmetrical things scare me a bit but c'est la vie! Prepare yourself for some crazy still-lifes comin at ya!


No. 1 A couch from the Yumchaa Cafe in Soho.

No. 2 The wardrobe in my bedroom.

No. 3 A metal chair in the Tartine cafe in Tooting.

No. 4 A very worn drawer study

Inspired at the moment by: This blog and Oh Comely magazine.

What is my luxury?

So as everyone who has spoken to me in the last two months knows, I have not been living a life of luxury. My days consist of sitting on our red brick of a couch and watching enough daytime television to make anyone sick. Most of the time I'm alone with my cat Gaston, which I'm enjoying as I don't like the idea of people seeing me be pathetic all day. I tried to be slightly productive though so I painted a picture of me being bored.

I do have goals but I feel like I'm waiting for them like I'm waiting for a bus. If I sit in the right place, it will come.

Today I watched Marie Antoinette and it made me want money. A lot of money doesn't make me happy, but a good amount does. I was silly to think that when I graduated I would stop living like a student.
